Happy Bird Day!

Once again this is one of the dorky cards that I just could not resist.  I had the stamp for a long time but I was just waiting to get "Give a Hoot" to make the bird.

I used:

Cricut's "Give a Hoot"

Cuttlebug"s "Swiss Dots"

StampinUp's "Picture This"

Don's Birthday card

My youngest brother turned 40 this year.  I always struggle with cards for the men in my life.  There is a fine balance when it comes to being too girlie on a card.  I made this for him because I liked the muted flowers. 
I used:
StampinUps "Full of Life"

Perfect Pear

I made this card for my nephew and his wife.  I thought it was so dorky that it was cute.  They seemed to love it.

I used:

Cricut's "Preserves"

Glitter Glue

It has been a while

So sorry about not posting anything for the last few weeks.  I have had my hands full.  My son graduated from HS, we had a grad. party for him and a friend, my mother-in-law came to visit, my youngest brother came to visit and we had a 4th of July party.  Now I am getting ready to go camping and getting my son's administrative stuff done for college in Fall.  All of this plus I am 7 weeks post op from some surgery I had.  Boy, now that I put it all down in writing I realize how much I have been doing. 

Anyway, I did manage to make 3 new cards and I will be posting them soon.  I don't want anyone to think that I have given up on my blog.  I hope all of you are having a wonderful summer and that you are using your sunscreen.

I thought I would mention the sunscreen because I just went into our travel trailor and did my inventory for our summer camping.  I found 12.....yes that is right, 12 containers of sun screen.  Some old and some new.  Since my husband's diagnosis with melanoma a few years back, I have been obsessed with sun protection for my husband and children.  My husband jokingly told me that I need to find an addiction group to help me with my obsession.  LOL!  Oh well, it could be a worse addiction :-P.
